REC/PLAY switch:

MIN. SHTR SPEED

Sets shutter speed to minimum. We recommend using slower shutter speeds to take brighter pictures in dark locations.

MODE: → REC menu

Settings: 1/250 1/125 1/60 1/30 1/15 1/8 1/4 1/2 1

Slower shutter speeds allow for brighter pictures but increase risk of jitter, so we recommend using a tripod and the self-timer.

As pictures may become dark when using faster values such as ‘1/250’, we recommend that pictures are taken in bright locations ( flashes red when shutter button is half- pressed if picture will be dark).
